Yes. You can retake each quiz once.

Modern European History (College) - Shmoop Online Courses Will transfer in as HIS-221 European History II

U.S. History: 1492-1877 (College) - Shmoop Online Courses will transfer in as HIS-113 and will duplicate.

U.S. History: 1877-Present (College) - Shmoop Online Courses Will transfer in as HIS-114. US History II . It will not duplicate HIS-113

To clarify, HIS-221 European History II/HIS-113 US History don't duplicate, correct? TESU will accept all three of these without duplication? I don't know why they would duplicate, I just got confused.

You would need to confirm with TESU to be sure, but I'd be shocked if they duplicated.

TESU specifically gave them non-duplicating course numbers, so you're fine.

And, why would US History duplicate European history? I could see if you were worried about it duplicating world history (it doesn't) or Western Civ (again, doesn't). It's even great that the European History shmoop course has a 200-level course number, so you could use it in the AOS for History or SocSci or LS and not have an issue.

Right, it didn't make sense to me, but the wording of the response was weird.

Tanks for the clarification.

I finished taking all of the unit tests for European History and the final and it's telling me my current course progress is only 92%. Did anyone else's say that and you still received credit for the course? I don't need to do all of the activities do I??

I did all three courses and none showed 100%, I still got credit for all three. As long as you did all the chapter tests and final I think you should be fine, those are all the things that will give you points.

It looks to me like they are thinking there is another unit test that is not there, maybe because the final unit is the final exam and not a unit test? Not sure if a test is missing from each course, or if they just have a calculation mistake.

That's what I'm thinking too. It shows 11 units but there is no option for the unit 11 test. It takes you right to the final exam. I sent it in for approval so I feel better knowing your progress didn't show 100% either. Thanks
